Peregrïn loves the ocean near the land. She hangs there the most because of the least amount of predators and the beautiful fish and corals all over the place! She especially likes all the sunlight and moonlight she gets, as well as a strange light that peers out to the sea every night...

Khadgar is a scholar currently living in a lighthouse. He’s currently writing a book on the ocean life and how important the ecosystem is. He’s also trying to write a book as a hobby but haven’t found a good premise yet!

They first met literally when they were teens. Khadgar dropped his notes in the water, and sadly walked away. A loud splash occurred and his notes appeared on dry land! Now, as any rational human would do in a situation like this, he tossed the book back into the ocean and ran away to hide. This time, he noticed pink hands tossing the notebook back onto land!

Seeing this, he tossed the book directly into the water and shoved his head to see who was in there! He did not expect a beautiful mermaid, inches away from his face, to be the culprit! His first reaction had him rolling backwards in surprise! Mermaids are real! Holy S#%*!

Perry, on her side of things, was going to peek to see who keeps dropping their book into her home, and had a very handsome human so close to her face. She physically inhaled and swam to the ocean floor! Humans were real! Holy crap!

Eventually, after dodging another heart attack, Khadgar would once again peek into the ocean. He sees a very shy Perry hiding behind a rock looking up at him. He tried to say “Hello there! Good to meet you!”, but all that came out was “Hbltlbtlbt! Gdnvfjorwkjfou!”Which had the mermaid laugh a little.

She swam up to him, pressing her lips onto his, and took a bit of air from him. Khadgar once again falls on his back in surprise! The mermaid get halfway out of the water, and rests her head on her arms looking at the goofy human. She explains mermaids can learn different languages and dialects quickly with the power of a kiss. This also supposedly allows humans to breathe much longer underwater in exchange,

Khadgar is still stuck on the kiss part.

Perry introduces herself, offering her hand to the human. Khadgar revealed his name to her and shook her wet hand. Perry begins asking Khadgar so many questions, Khadgar doing the same. The two nearly pass out from the lack of oxygen before taking a couple deep breaths.

Khadgar asks how Perry can breathe both air and water. She explains that her lungs are specially designed to not only take in the oxygen of the water, what her gills do, but also allows her to breathe oxygen as well.

Khadgar takes a bottle water out of his bag and offers it to her. The words “spring” water, caught her attention, and she IMMEDIATELY lunges away! She explains him she cannot go into fresh water areas. Her body literally burns from even a small touch of fresh water!

He immediately puts it away. He doesn’t want to hurt his nice fish friend.

The two bond after hours and hours of talking, literally stopping when it was almost twilight! Khadgar says his goodbyes, and promises to meet her at the same spot tomorrow.
